Liminal Flares
Gather round and welcome to Liminal Flares, an otherworldly podcast of gender-inclusive revisions of eldritch literature, read to you by Maika, your queer, trans, nonbinary narrator. Needlessly gendered, heteronormative language is everywhere. If you exist somewhere outside the gender binary - non-binary, genderqueer, gender-nonconforming, genderfluid, agender - whatever umbrella term best encompasses your own unique gender identity - there are countless ways the world behaves as though you don't exist. That won't happen to you here. Gender-neutral language creates room for everyone, which means that you are included and welcome here no matter what your gender. May these haunted and haunting stories and poems help you and/or people you love feel more valid and seen. Learn more about the show at liminalflares.com and follow us on social media @liminalflares.

Sonic midnight honey

Imagine the darkest bronzed honey, harvested during the penumbral glooms of an eclipse; imagine its velvet voice, dusky and low, crooning eerie twilit tales across the ether, eliciting shivers and tingles and thrills. Now imagine never once feeling that jarring sensation when you’ve been abruptly yanked out of the story thanks to outdated, non-inclusive language! Liminal Flares Otherworldly Gender-Inclusive Story Time extends an invitation to slip through a portal like none other, to utterly lose yourself for a sweet, spooky time, in that eldritch, honeyed darkness.
Great listening for winding down

This podcast is so welcoming and calming. I love the sound of the host’s voice, and am really thrilled to recommend this to folks who deserve to feel included in these public domain works. I’ve already recommended it thrice.
The spookiest of safe spaces

Never have I ever had so much grounding perspective brought to me by a podcast. These are more than stories at bed time…. These stories are a hug to say, you are loved and wanted in a cold world. These are both reassurance of the you you wish to be and acknowledgment of the self that emerges from the shadows. Here, all are loved.
